Having a black racer around your house can be a good thing. While not warm and cuddly like a puppy, they are great for keeping the pest population under control. Be advised, however, that they can slither into your house if you have a habit of leaving a door open. We've had a couple of neighbors who have found them inside the house, which can lead to an elevated heart rate!
